Agree, vigorous exercise can be great for it, I've been doing yoga lately and it's terrific as well.

you know what? i'm sitting here, just come home from work, almost in tears. don't know why, just sort of holding myself together and not letting myself get into a full-blown blubber. i dropped by dan's on the way home and grabbed a 6 pack of bundy and coke, dying to get into them but i can't yet.
i run every morning at 5.30 and go to the gym every night. i like to bookend the day with exercise, the run get's me through to the late afternoon with adrenaline and the gym session starts me up again and prevents me from dwelling on how sad I am until i go to bed and can sleep it off.
**** me, this helps. the high i get after coming back from a run, well, ****, you feel bulletproof! and coming home from the gym, especially after doing arms when you're swole as anything and you feel like the biggest bloke in the world. it's an awesome feeling.
try it mate
I know what the "sad" is.
The melancholy and you don't even know why your sad, , and you have thoughts that you go over and over with, and you battle that inside yourself.
Exercise it great, but I'm probably a lot older than you folks.
Being sad and down passes, it does!
Sometimes you manage it, that's life, some times you beat it, but when you learn to manage it it changes.
It's just that when you get that powerful down, talk to someone, anyone, or get on here, or the telephone but get outside and breath too!
Don't handle something you cop too strong by yourself ever , mix and talk and tell, and get help if its that bad
I did many years ago , my condition still sits with me sometimes, dirty damned thing, but when it is manageable you beat it.
It goes away, it does. Just remember that.
I am exhausted and don't know what to do. Have been under a lot of stress lately and hitting the bottle hard. But there is no other way. How else do you conjure up the energy to get through a day? I am no longer capable of working anymore. Not sure I have it in me for 40 hr weeks. But have no choice as the alternative I can't handle anymore. Plus a bunch of other s**t I can't even begin to contemplate. I feel trapped because I am. Just feel sick and need a break but everything is just relentless and has been and always will be. Need to have some strategy to face it.
Not depressed just a bit almost annoyed that nothing feels exciting anymore.
Going to the royal show when i was little or the first few footy games I went to type enjoyment.
Just gotta find something new and interesting i guess.
Im ok I just often wish I had the same enthusiasm for things.... guess thats life... u get used to stuff.
I did get excited going into Harvey Norman and seeing the monster TVs but then saw the prices and went "oh yeah... need money n stuff"
Rather use spare/saved money for travel
Thinking my best bet over the next few years is travel

Most of all, people seem more narcissistic and competitive, shallow than ever before.
Yeah people are becoming more horrible over the years. Like kill or be killed type attitude

Ive found Sydney/ Melb people like this for years.thats the Americanisation of culture. competitive rather than co-operative.
Walked out of my psychologists office mid-appointment today. Had been getting annoyed with what I felt was a lack of basic listening and understanding of what I was saying for a few weeks now, and despite my best efforts to explain that to them, nothing was changing. Normally I would've just sat there, mumbled out some answers and left feeling even worse than when I had gone in, but I just couldn't do it this time.
They sent a message after I left, with some nonsense about a wall of anger being the problem. I, ironically out of the anger that the message had created in me, sent back a message saying I wouldn't be back because I hadn't been listened to, blah, blah, blah.
No idea if I made the right call. I may be ******. But it did feel good to walk out of a room on my own accord that always seemed impossible to leave.
(Sorry, just wanted to vent somewhere)
I’ve been feeling very agitated and sad lately too. I’m stuck at work with no support and continually get bombarded with direction and training. I sit in an office alone.
I feel so sad waking up each morning becoming robotic, that I just get up and do it. I don’t want to do it, I rather stay in bed and wake up when I’m ready.
I’ve never stood up for myself and I wouldn’t know how too. I just agree and nod to every barking order given to me.
I’ve had two jobs in twelve months because I haven’t been able to stand up for myself and defend my arguments.
I don’t know what to do, I’ve always been a confident person now I just dread confrontation and drama, I rather not come across it.
I fear this will consume me and I will not be able to hold down a job for long because I distance myself from drama hence why I get walked over.
Things come as a challenge for me, and I fear doing something wrong will just draw me more angst.

I'm sorry to hear that and am with you 100% on dreading confrontation and drama, but I think that standing up for yourself is essential as an adult and I think people will try to bully you out of it by depicting you as an a-hole for being assertive. Life is a drag, though, there's no magic pill that's going to make you enjoy it and you probably already know this. I believe we're in the midst of a philosophical crisis.

I do some exercise but too much and I get injured easily and exhausted. Just have to see out this contract at work (haven't saved enough which is stressing me as I don't know where my next job is or if I need to move get a new car etc). Just trying to do my best see how the footy turns out (nice distraction)Agree, vigorous exercise can be great for it, I've been doing yoga lately and it's terrific as well.
Hang in there mate, I hope everything works out for you.I do some exercise but too much and I get injured easily and exhausted. Just have to see out this contract at work (haven't saved enough which is stressing me as I don't know where my next job is or if I need to move get a new car etc). Just trying to do my best see how the footy turns out then have space to figure something out.
Find I can't multi task. Just too hard
